ED Team Raptor9 Posted August 9, 2014 ED Team Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) If we had a Vietnam map (both geographically and 60's/70's era equipment), I'd be all for the G-model Cobra. But since we don't, I'm voting for the W-model Cobra. For the Georgia map, operators could include the US and Turkey, which would fit nicely given the location.

Razor5-1 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 The F model is my favourite. Notice it's been omitted from your little poll. The W is still in service. It would be a more in-depth and accurate model if it were the F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJack Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 AH-1W and AH-1W only. Because it fit's best in the current georgia environment and timeframe. It also has the most interesting weapon systems and avionic systems and you can reuse bigger parts of that code for a possible apache variant later. This is exactly why I also would like to see the -W. I totally agree with every word! Bring us the "Whiskey Cobra". BST thanks for the great products and keep up the good work!

It would be a more in-depth and accurate model if it were the F. Reason: we are now reviewing the plan .. maybe it will be "-1S" or "-1W"..

Razor5-1 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) Reason: :doh: It has to be the Whiskey cobra then, with the older exhaust is prettier, not the ZULU exhaust mod. If they do change from the G model I think it's a great discission by Belsimtek. I can guarantee much more people would be interested (more sales) in a full combat effective model, ie TOW, than a Vietnam era guns and rockets model. I would argue almost everybody got into DCS for modern combat aircraft, I know all the rest about it being a platform for everything. But the modern aspect has been lost lately. Im all for getting back on track, bring on the WHISKEY and the F-18 :thumbup: Edited August 9, 2014 by Razor5-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratos Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Can someone with more knowledge post the main specifications (including available weapons) for both the S and the W please?

blksolo Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 There are actually several versions of the S model,I guess they made changes to it in stages. The final "modernized" S Cobra had a 20mm canon,TOW missiles,forward optics and a HUD.Then after they made more changes they redesignated it as the F Cobra. Confused? So am I lol.http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/ah-1s.htm Intel i7 6700k OC 4.7ghz Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero Motherboard Zotac GTX980ti 6GB Amp Extreme 32 GB DDR4 3200 RAM Oculus Rift CV1 Thrustmaster Warthog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire257 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'd be very happy with either, but more satisfied with the W if that makes sense. I'm more interesting in it being an ATGM platform. I wouldn't have bought a G, but S or W is certainly something I would considering buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobo Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'd prefer the AH-1Z vs the W, but W if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullfrog_ Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) I'd like the AH-1W, just brings more to the table. If they go with the AH-1W, I hope it gets the option to use the Sidearm and Sidewinders! Edited August 9, 2014 by Bullfrog_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Trooper Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Yes the beauty of the W is that if you decide to go with sidewinders you loose your air to ground anti tank capability for that sortie.

joshua13452 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 The AH-1W can have Aim-9's and Tows at the same time just like the Z model i believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Trooper Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 There is an outer wing tip connection point? Or can both inner and outer wing Hardpoints deal with complex data feedback?

joshua13452 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 On the later variants of the W i believe there are little hard point that stick up that have flare dispensers aswell as hold the Aim-9 but i couldn't find any pictures of a AH-1W with AIM-9s much less with AIM-9s and TOWS. http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/imgs/bell-ah1-supercobra.jpg I believe the AIM-9s are attached above the little things sticking out above the pylons but my only source of that is Wargame: Red Dragon.

joshua13452 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Actually upon further research it looks like it can only be attach the the outer hardpoint like you said earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
